Some exciting changes are also happening with the show and the format, this is an episode you don’t want to miss!

Is the Empire Strikes Back the greatest movie ever made? Jonathan sure thinks so. Plus Jonathan’s dear ole daddy joins the show to do a full breakdown of Empire, ya know, since he lived it. We get into Bob Igers return to Disney, the potential Apple merger swirling, Tarantino’s MCU comments, and the hype level around Avatar: The Way of Water. The Christmas Movie fantasy draft kicked off with JP and Jonathan choosing their team of 10 to compete between now and Christmas. Lastly, we asked the heavy questions. Why do Christian movies suck? Was Chewbacca the OG thirst trap? Was he who kicked off the furry phenomenon? Jabbites? Ew. This is a loaded episode, lots to digest! Thanks for listening!
